How is the name "Hermione" pronounced in the Harry Potter Books?

Everyone here who said 'her-mine-knee' is wrong - they're missing a syllable.

It's Her-MY-oh-nee. Four syllables, with the stress on the second one. The 'oh' can almost get lost if you say the name really quickly, particularly in an English accent, but it *is* there.

Hermione herself tells Viktor how to pronounce her name in 'Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire', in fact. Also, if anyone's ever studied Shakespeare's play 'The Winter's Tale', they'll know how to pronounce it, because it's the name of one of the characters.

Harry or Edward - Edward, this was actually a hard one but I'm not to crazy about the name Harry unless its a nickname. Ronald or Jacob - Jacob, because it sounds more sexy and attractive to me. Luna or Rosalie - Luna, she was so quirky and its a name you don't hear alot. Hermione or Alice - Hermione, again I like uncommon names. Cedric or Emmett - Emmett George or Jasper - George, because my aunt is named Georgia. Sirius or Carlisle - Sirius Molly or Esme - Esme Ginevra "Ginny" or Isabella "Bella" - Ginevra, because Bella is so over used. James or Charlie - Charlie Lily or Jane - Lily, Jane is just to plain for my taste. Rose or Renesmee - Renesmee, although I would never name a child this I love how she combined two names together to get one name. Albus or Aro - Albus, first off and this is probably obvious but I absolutely hated Aro. Second because I always seem to read it with a accent. Petunia or Renee - Renee, I never have liked Petunia for a persons name.

It should be pronounced "her-my-oh-ne". In the movies and audio books, it often pronounced "her-miney", just saying it faster and running the last three syllables together.

JKR makes the pronunciation clear in GoF, in the "Yule Ball" Chapter.

wl

Her-MY-OH-knee

It is shown that it is pronounced like this in the fourth book when Hermione attempts to teach the character Viktor Krum.

Her-my-oh-nee.

People who said Her-my-nee are wrong, it just sounds like that because when you say it without pronouncing every syllable that's how it sounds.

Her-My-Oh-Knee

I don't know why people are saying it's because of english accents, the author(therefore the book too) is english.

Okay, most people here are getting it wrong because of the English accents in the films. It's Her-My-Oh-Knee. Not Her-Mine-Knee, not Her-My-Uh-Knee and most certainly not Hair-My-Oh-Knee.

Her-my-oh-knee...I think she mentioned it to Krum once in Book 5, if I'm not wrong...

Her - my - oh - nee.

Lol, I pronounced it her - mee - own the first time haha.

"Her-My-Oh-Knee"

It's explained in the fouth book "The Goblet of Fire" when she explains to Viktor Krum how to say her name :)
